What movie / movie scene makes you cry?
« on: May 05, 2011, 08:21:08 AM »
For me, it's always the same thing.  Near the end of Titanic, when the string quartet figures they're about done and will go their separate ways, then the one guy starts playing "Nearer, My God, to Thee", and the others come back and join him. No amount of trying can hold back the tears on that one.

The end scene in Gladiator when he's reunited with his wife and son kind of chokes me up.

There's not really one particular scene that gets me every time.  I really have to be in a mood.  But the last one that got me was the boardwalk scene, in The Wrestler.  Even though it was in the trailer, when I saw it theatrically, I just lost it.

The end of Star Wars episode III (delivering Luke and Leia to their new homes) made me tear up a little bit the first time I saw it, just because Star Wars was such a huge part of my childhood and that pretty much summed up everything and tied all the movies together.

The scene in the Lion King when Mufasa dies

The ending to American History X. Such a powerful movie, it always gets to me. That is the only one that I actually cry whenever I watch it.

Armageddon - After they return home and the little kid hugs his dad for the first time.
My Dog Skip - When the kid finds his dog half dead on the ground.
The Perfect Storm - When the boat is sinking


There are plenty more but my school work has me so angry right now I can't think of anything sad.

Pixar movies. It's because of a mix between happiness, sadness and nostalgia.

Finding Nemo, my favourite movie that I've seen countless times, makes my eyes tear up in the happy parts because I'm happy - when Marvin and Nemo reunites, when Marvin enjoys the maelstrom, when they survive getting swallowed by the whale etc. But the sad parts are worse, of course - when Marvin tries to follow the boat but loses sight of it I still panic, and I'm embarrassingly torn up when he sees Nemo "dead" and then abandons Dory.

"Aranka, why are you crying? You've seen this movie a million times, you know it all turns out good."
"WELL MAYBE IT DOESN'T THIS TIME WHAT IF THEY NEVER FIND EACH OTHER :'( :'( :'("

Also, the beginning of Up made me cry like a baby... both times I've seen it. It's so touching!

Oh, and Forrest Gump. The first time I saw it I cried from the moment his mother died until the end of the movie - I was a complete wreck. The thing was I thought the movie was over soon when his mother died and allowed myself to start crying, but it's wasn't even near the end. I just couldn't stop because it was all so sad, and when it wasn't I accidentally thought of his mother or Bubba again and it all started over. :lol

Alright, here's one that always gets me but I think it's fucked up that it gets me

That one scene in Click when Adam Sandler's character is lying in the rain (SPOILER) dying (/SPOLER)

I mean, what the fuck? It's a dumb adam sandler comedy and I get tears? I think that scene is, like, formulaically designed to make your tear ducts work or something. I mean, shit

Oh, and Forrest Gump.

Yeah, the thing that REALLY got me about this movie was that the WHOLE movie, he's devoted to Jenny with all his heart and always lets her know how he feels for her and how important she is to him.  She rebuffs him repeatedly and then finally, Forrest has his chance to spend his life with her, she's finally his, and his devotion to her has not been in vain.  Such a triumphant moment.

Then she dies of AIDS.

Son of a bitch.

That beginning is very touchy for my wife and I.  We couldn't have children and it hit home.  We were both bawling in the theaters full of kids.  

Thanks Coz.

Undoubtedly that would be something touchy to sit through.

Also, edited to suggest that you were crying in the theater, as opposed to something entirely less wholesome.

Count me in for Marley & Me as well, especially at the little funeral they have and the kids drew pictures for him and stuff.  Mother f.  Also Forrest Gump when he's reading his letter to Jenny's grave and breaks down when he talks about how smart little Forrest is.  Fuck it's gettin dusty in here just thinking about that part!  But the one that always gets me, and this is really freakin lame but whatever we all seem to be putting our manhoods aside and getting confessional in here, is Elf when the little brother (Michael?) first sees Santa in the woods and realizes he's real and Santa shows him the skateboard he got him and the little believe-o-meter goes up.  Then he takes Santa's list and starts reading it on tv and all the kids watching at home get all stoked, all the way through to where the a-hole James Caan dad starts singing and Santa's sleigh flys overhead, and they show a close up of a little baby looking at it.  God damn I'm so lame!  What really makes me ashamed is the obvious fact that Santa and getting presents must have been what really made Christmas special to me as a kid, not like all the peace on earth and goodwill toward men and whatnot.

Oh man. That was very very sad. Adam Sandler never made me feel like that before.

Another scene that reminded me of...

Toward the end of Into The Wild when the dad breaks down in the middle of the street. So sad.

Well this like hell... Also The Lion King...

Two years ago. We had to put our dog to sleep much like Marley.  He had a mass in his intestines and wouldn't eat and was turning into a skeleton with skin draped over it.  Me, my son and my wife all just sat in the Vet's office and bawled like little girls.  About a month later, not knowing the ending, my wife got the Marley & Me DVD and we were all excited to watch it.  But at the end we were all reminded of that night at the Vet's office and all three of us bawled like little girls again. 

The way Marley died.  The way he went nuts during storms.  Marley was so much like our old friend.    :sadpanda:

Life is Beautiful.  When the boy sees the tank at the end.

*Spoilers*

For those who don't know (I'm not sure how popular this movie is), a boy and his family are taken to a concentration camp, where his father portrays everything to his son as a game, and if they win, he gets a real army tank.  When his camp is liberated and the boy sees an allied tank roll in, his face lights up as if he won.

That had a lot of sad scenes, like the rewind when he's saying goodbye to his dad, the scene in the rain/hospital, etc. Really great movie though.
